Oklahfoma City mauled Kopo's of ferings today and romped away with the second game of the Omaha se ries, 8 to 3. The local batimen bunched their hits in 'four innings, while Dennis tightened after a bad start and held the visitors safe after the third in ning. Kirby, with a pair of doubles, and Gislason, with two singles, did most of the Omaha hitting. Kirby's first double drove in Jack son after the manager had hit safely, and Cable who had gained a life on a fielder's choice, tallied on an in field out. The0 visiting left fielder also chased the other run in the third, his second double sending 6a schang across after the latter had walked.'' Hunter Scores. Donica's error, Griffin's hit, Nutt's sacrifice and Cable's low throw to the plate allowed Hunter to score in the second and Lindiinore fol lowed him across on Griffith's sin gle. Griffith's single in t':c fourth :;cored Griffin and Nutt, who had walked and hit respectively, Three hits and a walk accounted tor two more in the sixth and the last duo came over in the eighth when Ba schang, watching a Fort Sill airman swoop over the outfield, let Grif fith's hit go to the fence, two runs scoring. Banner, Omaha catcher, injured his leg in a play at the plate in the second and was carried off the field. OMAHA Rawhang. rf, .Inrkfton, lb ,, ble, Sb ,,,, Ab. B.H. Po.

By WILLIAM O. BLOZIES. Out of the 14 amateur contests scheduled yesterday aft ernoon byt the local sand-lotters of the five leagues that are members of the 'Municipal Amateur Base Ball association three were postponed on account of wet grounds, four were fast and exciting until the finish while the other seven were of the one-sided affairs. Two of the three battles that were postponed were bocked at Thirty-second and Dewey avenue and were scheduledas the feature contests in their respective leagues. The initial game was to have been between the Trimble Brothers and World-Herald teams, of the Booster league, while the main event was to have been put on by the Bowen Fur nitures and the McCafferv Motor crew. The latter contest would have decided first place in the City legue between these two teams. The third postponed battle was scheduled at Elmwood park, east diamond, between the American Railway Express and the J. B. Roots M the American league. Diamonds in Good Shape. At Thirtysecond and Dewey ave nue a large crowd had assembled to witness the double program and were much disappointed when neither of the teams appeared. The diamonds were in good condition and . both , contests no doubt could have been played according to the f,pectators. According to Manager Art Moran of the Bowen Furniture company team, the game between his team ar.d the McCaffery's was tailed off at 12:15 o'clock. The Furniture lads were ready to play, but according to Moran, had received word from Sec retary Isaacson of the association, that the diamonds would not be in condition to play on. The Mickle Victrolas sprung a big surprise in the City leaeue wren they came back strong and defeated the Willard Storage Battery compa ry company by a 8 to S scoie, there by making the race a tie tor fifth place. The Union Outfitting com pany won their second game of the season by taking the Omaha Print ing company to a 9 to 6 trimming. E. Nufer's pitching for the Outfit ters was a feature of the came, ug well as the heavyvhitting of hi3 team mates. Sample-Harts Win. The Sample-Harts sprung the big surprise of the day when they won from the Universal Motor company team by a 13 to 3 score, thereby pulling the Universale down from their 1,000 per cent to 500 and are now tied for third place with the motor crew. The Lniversals were the favorites in this game, by Man ager Shields announced last night that over-confidence was the cause of their defeat. The game was fast and exciting for the . first seven rounds and was a 3 to 3 tie, but in the eighth Pitcher Sohm's weaken ed and Sample-Harts drove his de livery to all corners of the ' lot. Belford, who relieved Sohm was also hit hard, the winners securing a total of 13 hits. Louis Scheef, on the mound for the winners, al lowed but seven hits and struck out nine mon. Fans See Fast Game. ; The best played game of the day was staged at Thirty-first and Ames avenue by the Riggs Ontical com pany and the Paxton-Vierlings of the American league, in which the Riggs won by a close score of 2 to 0. The hitting of Tom Baum gardner was responsible for the Op tical's victory as he drove in both of the runs. Tom player his fare well game with the Riggs, as he leaves for Wyoming tonight. Jim Baumgardner's pitching also fea tured. The Ramblers, by taking the Daily News team to a It to 5 trim ming, won their second consecutive victory of the season and are in first place in the Booster league with 1.000 per cent. The Benson Mer chants, who were picked by many of the followers of the Booster league to be the "goat," came back strong and won from the Maney Milling company by a 7 to 6 score, in a fast and exciting gme. The Merchants have strengthened their line-up and should they play during the balance of the season as they did yesterday, they no doubt will be among the top-notchers when the season winds up. The Trimble Bhothers. for the second time this season, were ready to inaugurate their 1919 season but the weather conditions preventetd them from do ing so. ' ' HardingsWin, In the Inter-City league, the Hard ing Ice Cream company, formerly the Willow Springfs Beverage, won easily from the Beddeos by an 18 to 5 score, while the Harley-Davidsons defeated the John Day Rubber com pany, formerly the Walnut Hill Mer chants, by an 11 to 5 score. Bill Ort's pitching for the Town send Gun company, and the hitting of Seborn, Ort and Russo proved too much for the Omaha Printing com pany juniors,' and the Gunners won their third consecutive game of the season by the score of 9 to 2, and are leading the Gate City league. Up to the sixth inning the game was a 2 to 2 tie, but in the fatal seventh the Gunners drove seven runs across the plate., Seborn, Ort and Russo each made a triple and two two-baggers. The Beselins defeated -the McKen ney Dental company, formerly the Flitton Optical company, b m 11 to 3 score, while the Vinton Street Mer chants went down in defeat at the hands of the Originals by 16 to 8. Although the weather was some what chilly, large crowds were in at tendance at all of the games, and im mensely enjoyed the national pas time as was handed out by the "big leaguers of tomorrow." . Murphy s Beat Longeway ' Squad at Athletic Park Hays' excellent pitching combined with some fast fielding, enabled the Murphys to defeat the Longeway team by a score of 3 to 0 in the Ath letic park yesterday afternoon before 500 people. The Murphys won the game in the first inning when they made a run. Synek walked, stole second and came home on Williams' bingle to center. The Longeways came back strong in the half of the first and put two men on bases, but the pitching of Hays, who struck out the next three batters, was too much for the lads over the river. The; Murphys i scored two more runs in the sixth, when the Longe ways made three errors and Super nois issued a base on balls. Harry Williams played a good game for the Murphys, making two hits and not allowing a man to steal base. Clair also made a few" spec tacular stops. Supernoios, who was on the firing line lor the Bluffs team, issued six passes. He allowed four hits and struck out 10 men. Score R, H. B.

Wherever business goes on those two de pendable cigars, Owl and Whitb Owl go also. The East trades with the West over Owl Cigars. Northern farmers talk crops over Owl Cigars.

Lest local boxing followers be come confused, it is not Harry Wil liams, our local ball player-boxer that meets Harry Greb at Lancas ter, Pa., tonight. That fellow's name is Larry Williams, and he hails from Pittsburgh, Greb's home town. . It is reported that they used to be sparring partners and had a falling out and Williams challenged Greb for a battle. They will go six rounds tonight. Welterweight Champion Jack Britton takes on Johnny Griffiths, the Akron, O., flash, in a 10-round bout at Buffalo tonight, and on May 20 he will go eight rounds with him at Memphis, Tenn.

He is even barred from a proposed exhibition bout with Harry Wills. The Buffalo, N. Y., cue veteran, Eyron Gillette, has challenged Al fred De Oro, the three-cushton bil liard champion for a title match. Gillette is 65 years old, but he re cently showed his mettle by play ing a wonderful game xgainst Charlie McCourt. He needed 87 to run out in the final block against McCourt and he just made that many. The Gordon, Nebraska, farmers are all "het up" over the announce ment that they are going to ;-tt an opportunity to see two of the world's greatest wrestlers in action there on June 14. It is freely predicted in that section that the canvas cover will have to be rolled back to ac commodate the crowd that will want to see the match. Fans will travel to Gordon from all over the state of Nebraska to see the bout and a num ber of Chicago fans will undoubt edly be on hand to see how Zbyszko fares against the wonderful Shelton farmer boy, John Pesek.
